Dear Mark and Steve,
I have been reading with interest all the emails - and even though I havn't
responded yet - as they are on email I feel like I am part of it all as I
can read straight away all the discussions. However I understand it being a
pain for some - it is distracting me from my work even though I am enjoying
it !

Forwarding reminders to access the drawing- board with a summary of
discussions would be very useful if we no longer have the email service.

Also knowing that they are all kept is useful as I've been trying to file
them all off for later reference!

Would we be able to forward those discussions that we are interested in
from the bulletin board to our emails?

Many thanks,

Emma Davies
